If by perfect you mean a perfectly plodding fighter with little skill then absolutely.

No such thing as a 'perfect' fighter, but GGG seems to have optimised a style that plays to his natural strengths and abilities, which is the most you can expect of any fighter.

His limitations seem to lie in not being the quickest either in punching speed or on his feet, though he does show a fair turn of speed occasionally. Stylistically he neglects defense to a degree, though again this is partly a consequence of his heavy focus on offense - it's the school of 'Hit more than you get hit' rather than 'Hit and don't get hit'. Guy may not be the best off the back foot either though this ain't completely clear since he's rarely there for any extended period.This may become more of a factor if he ever moves up in weight and is confronted with guys who he can't physically control.

EDIT: And any poster who claims that Golovkin has no flaws are either trolling or deluded, but I've never seen that claim made. Can you provide some quotes?

[Canelo and GGG]

I think he beats Canelo, even in 2017 but his style doesn't last long.

I won't lie Canelo is getting good in the pocket but GGG will match him and more .

Inside is way to go for Canelo,biggest GGG flaw is his inside,and Canelo is dog there,we shell see sooner or later,no body skips this kind of money.

Every fighter has flaws, some more than others.

GGG has good timing, good ring general, solid jab, power in both hands. He's not the fastest guy, not really a combination puncher, doesn't have BAD defense but will kinda take to give a shot. His head movement as well is a little lacking.

These are pretty good film studies on him. He's a little more cerebral than most might give him credit for.

Point out this flews.im interested in opinions on GGGs Game,can i ask about little brak down?

Basically what PK and Beer said. His chin will likely give at some point but as someone else also mentioned..if he adds more feints and its unnatural it'll slow his reaction and make him overthink things. He's also a sucker inside for the uppercut and guys with quickish feet are able to close the distance with punches on him and tend to catch him unsuspecting. It's almost weird for GGG to have guys stand in there with him and fight him inside and not retreat. His reaction time is lacking at times.


He's so good at what he does and good with what he has that it's not like he isnt effective but he's far from perfect.

[Nay_Sayer]

Fact is, Bumlovkin hasn't been in the ring with anyone possessing the skillset, size and power to exploit his weaknesses. This is why we haven't seen the Lara, Ward and now Jacobs fights materialize...

[SplitSecond]

If he has a flaw it's his tendency of turning into Provodnikov upon realizing his opponent punches can't hurt him.
